DEAF LIFEGUARD GETS $25,000 TO SETTLE LAWSUIT OVER JOB
A deaf lifeguard has agreed to a $25,000 settlement with a Michigan county that rescinded a job offer at a wave pool. Nicholas Keith, who is deaf and unable to speak, claimed Oakland County violated a federal law that protects people with disabilities. He was offered a job at a wave pool in 2007, but the offer was dropped after officials talked to risk consultants. Keith, now 23, can use a cochlear implant to detect noises, whistles and people calling for him. He also can blow a whistle. / The Associated Press

COLD AIR ALERTS HEARING-IMPAIRED MAN TO BREAK-IN AT FLINT HOME
A cold breeze is what led to a hearing-impaired man finding his home broken into and his white Pit Bull missing, according to a police report. The man told police someone kicked in his front door at his home around 2 a.m. The man didn't hear glass breaking or the door being kicked in, police said. It wasn't until the man felt cold air inside his home that he realized the burglary had happened. Police said he reported his cell phone, wallet and debit card, as well as his 3-year-old white Pit Bull were missing. / The Flint Journal

An Indian River County bus aide is temporarily off of his bus route following allegations that he has been too physical with a hearing-impaired boy on his bus. The bus picks up 4-year-old Rage, and takes him to Oak Hammock K-8 in Port St. Lucie. The boy's mother, Chantale Thompson, says her son has shown up for school twice this year with bruises. She says he leaves home without any marks, but after his 45 minute bus ride, she has been called by school officials saying he has suspicious bruises. / WFLX

EX-LIBRARY CLERK COULD GET JURY TRIAL
A wrongful-termination claim filed by a former Huntington Beach city employee who is deaf could go to a jury trial early next year. The former library clerk contends that the city failed to provide her with a qualified sign-language interpreter before she was forced to resign three years ago. Plaintiff Merrie Sager worked at a city library from 1978 to August 2010. Her lawyer, William Crosby, said the woman, who is deaf and has cerebral palsy, was forced to resign without cause. / Huntington Beach Independent

MANY DEAF SCHOOL STUDENTS WEREN'T RAISED WITH SIGN LANGUAGE
Most deaf children’s parents can hear and too few of them learn sign language, meaning they can’t fully communicate with their deaf children, says Mal Grossinger, superintendent of the California School for the Deaf, Riverside. Consequently, many students arrive at the deaf school at an intellectual and social disadvantage – and several years behind their peers academically. Many struggle to communicate in any form, much less to read and write. / The Press-Enterprise

SCHOOLS FOR DEAF AND BLIND TO STAY PUT
The West Virginia Schools for the Deaf and Blind, the only educational site of its kind in the Mountain State, will stay in Hampshire County. On Thursday, the state Board of Education approved a resolution that will keep the facility where it is in Romney. “We’re just elated,” said Romney Mayor Dan Hileman of the news. “The state school board has made the right decision and they’ve taken the right approach.” / WV MetroNews

VIRGINIA SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF AND BLIND CLOSES DORM TO SAVE MONEY
After a recommendation was made by the state department for planning and budget, the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind decided to close one of its four dorms to save money this fall. Enrollment is down at the Staunton school and the space was unnecessary, at least at the moment. By closing the dorm the school will see cost savings of $157,424 by cutting utilities and not replacing four staffers who left. / The Washington Post

INSIDE DEN OF HUMAN TRAFFICKER, 84, WHO KEPT DEAF MUTE GIRL AS SEX SLAVE FOR NINE YEARS
Ilyas Ashar, 84, sexually abused the unnamed girl over the course almost a decade after she first arrived in the country aged around 10 from Pakistan in 2000. Ashar used the girl, who is profoundly deaf and cannot speak, as a sex slave and to steal more than £30,000 ($48,500 US) benefits on her behalf. He beat and slapped the girl and forced her to work for him and his family as a domestic servant at their home in Salford. Ashar was found guilty of 13 counts at Manchester's Minshull Street Crown Court. / Daily Express

BRIDPORT: HELPING DEAF PEOPLE TO COMMUNICATE
Back in 2007 there was no community group in Bridport for deaf people and their friends and relatives – the last such organization had closed more than 30 years earlier following the sudden death of the club chairman. Six years on and Bridport boasts a Deaf Club so popular that people travel from as far as Oxford, Plymouth, Portsmouth and Bristol to swell numbers at social events to well over 100. The secret of its success – according to its members – is a determination to involve both deaf and hearing people at all events and to ensure no one is left out. / View From Online

DEAF COMMUNITY CALLS FOR RECOGNITION OF IRISH SIGN LANGUAGE
The lives of those in the deaf community would be improved if Irish Sign Language (ISL) was recognized. That is according to Bishopstown native Eoin Burns, who outlined that legal recognition of ISL will mean improved services for deaf people. Mr Burns, who has been deaf since birth, stated that while UK and US sign languages are recognized, Irish Sign Language is not. "Ireland does not recognize it despite years and possibly decades of sheer hard work by so many people especially the deaf community and the organizations representing deaf people,” he said. / The Cork News

Bourque, who represented himself, testified he had put alcohol in his ears as part of an experiment to determine how Jesus restored the hearing of deaf people. / The London Free Press

DRAMA TEACHER SEEKING TO BECOME ISRAEL'S FIRST DEAF FLIGHT ATTENDANT
A 51-year-old man's quest to be Israel's first hard-of-hearing flight attendant fell on deaf ears this week after the Civil Aviation Authority refused to intervene. Deaf drama teacher Shuki Assouline had been engaged in active talks with El Al for the past two years to convince the airline to hire him as flight attendant. However, the airline determined that it could not employ him as an attendant due to safety concerns. / Haaretz

SEMINARIANS TO LEARN SIGN LANGUAGE AS BISHOP WORKS TO MAKE MASS ACCESSIBLE TO THE DEAF
Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades hopes the Day of Reflection for the Deaf the Catholic Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend will offer Saturday is the beginning of what becomes an active deaf Catholic community in the diocese. "Eventually, I would like to see Masses where the celebrant is signing," Rhoades said. Working toward that goal, Rhoades has asked two of the diocese's current seminarians to learn American Sign Language so they can celebrate Masses and provide sacraments to deaf Catholics in sign language. / The Republic

VIDEO DEPICTING CONVERSATION BETWEEN DEAF GIRL, ORANGUTAN HIGHLIGHTS PALM OIL RISKS
Environmental activists have released an emotive video that aims to raise awareness about the impact of converting rainforests into oil palm plantations to provide a common ingredient in processed snack foods. The video, distributed by the Rainforest Action Network (RAN), portrays a 12-year-old deaf girl named Lena communicating in sign language via Skype with "Strawberry," an orangutan in Indonesia.

Soon, however, the entire family will begin taking sign language classes, and Ramselys was given a video phone, which lets her communicate with her friends using sign language. / Ocala.com

MARYSVILLE GIRL BENEFITS FROM SCHOOL FOR HEARING-IMPAIRED CHILDREN
Marysville’s Matthea Balcago is considered profoundly deaf. She cannot hear at all. As an elementary student, Matthea was struggling to learn — not because she wasn’t capable, but because there weren’t enough resources in the school to adequately educate a deaf child. “The school wasn’t helping her,” said Matthea’s mother, Maita Gaines. "Her speech pathologist advised us to go visit Northwest School for Hearing-Impaired Children to see if that would be the best school for Matthea.” / Marysville Globe

DEAF AND HEARING CULTURES CLASH IN ROCKY MOUNTAIN DEAF THEATRE'S 'ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST'
Ken Kesey, like other 1960s counterculture writers, wrote critically of mainstream uniformity and conformity. The treatment of people who deviate from dominant cultural norms is one of the themes Kesey explored in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, his novel about very real and very skewed ideas of acceptable behavior. And if the author once said, "He who walks out of step hears another drum," the Denver-based Rocky Mountain Deaf Theatre company knows better than most what he was getting at. / Colorado Springs Independent

THEATER: 'TRIBES' AT THE GUTHRIE
This is the house that Christopher and Beth have built. It is propped up by words — literally. Within a large room encased in floor-to-ceiling books, Christopher, Beth and two of their children fire words at each other constantly. Billy, the youngest child, is left out. He is deaf and only by reading lips can he get a sense of the scabrous cacophony that passes for family chatter. Nina Raine’s play, “Tribes,” finds in Billy an avatar to consider the questions of identity, isolation, the myriad facets of communication and the inadequacy of our verbal constructions to convey emotional depth. / Star Tribune

The organizations are providing text captioning on video boards so that football fans who have difficulty hearing the public-address system can read the play-by-play information as games are in progress. The captioning system is the result of a year’s worth of planning and refinement, shaped in large part by a lawsuit brought by Michael Ubowski, a Mesa resident and advocate for the deaf. / The Republic
